Heapsize: Is heapsize greater than 1.5 GB? Is it specified in the Launch Options?

Quote:

Heapsize Setting: Modify the heapsize command to allocate 50% of the RAM you have in your computer in bytes.
1GB -heapsize 524288
2GB -heapsize 1048576
3GB+ -heapsize 1572864
Since L4D2 is a 32-bit application it is believed to be capped at a maximum of 3GB of RAM. Setting heapsize to a value beyond this may crash the game.

Perhaps you need to dig in there, in the Local Files tab and hit Verify Integrity of Game Cache.

What you can do, in my case a couple years ago when I couldn't upload screenshots to Steam, is delete everything, except: steam.exe, SteamApps. Then double-click steam.exe, where it will download a new copy of the client, or update it, if a new update is available. From there, it does require that you re-enter your Steam Login, and if you have Steam Guard enabled, then you should have Gmail / Hotmail / Yahoo, etc. or another mail client open to intercept it so that you can enter a code word.If you lost access to any of it, then you're out of the game. You can't reset your password, NOPE.AVI.

Of course, you could go the uninstall, restart, reinstall route, but this may require a bit of registry cleaning, using CCleaner.

The Steam installer comes in a Windows Installer (MSI) package. Right click on it and select to uninstall it. This only works if the program is already installed. You may have to use the Programs and Features menu to remove it there. After you've restarted, run the MSI package to reinstall Steam back.

Sound lowers as I start up Left 4 DeadSo I am using the Windows 7 RC Build 7100 and every time I start up Left 4 Dead, change a chapter, and etc the sound of everything lowers..this happens in a few other games. I always just go to the mixer and put it back after I alt+tab but that can get annoying. So any help would be appreciated.
